Fleetwood is a town and civil parish within the Wyre district of Lancashire, England, lying at the northwest corner of the Fylde. The site of the town has been continuously inhabited since the Middle Ages. Fleetwood acquired its modern character in the 1830s, when the principal landowner Peter Hesketh-Fleetwood, High Sheriff and MP, conceived an ambitious plan to re-develop the town to make it a busy seaport and railway spur. He commissioned the distinguished Victorian architect Decimus Burton to design a number of substantial civic buildings, including two lighthouses. Hesketh-Fleetwood's transport terminus schemes failed to materialise.
Decline of the fishing industry began in the 1960s, hastened by the Cod Wars with Iceland, though fish processing is still a major economic activity in Fleetwood. The town's most notable employer today is Lofthouse of Fleetwood, manufacturer of the lozenge Fisherman's Friend which is exported around the world.
Fleetwood is located on the Fylde Peninsula, 8 miles (13 km) north of Blackpool, on the western side of the mouth of the River Wyre. The town itself is on a peninsula, almost 2 miles (3 km) wide, bounded to the west by the Irish Sea, to the north by Morecambe Bay and to the east by the River Wyre. Access to Fleetwood is thus restricted, and for many years there were only two roads into and out of the town. A large sandbank, the North Wharf, extends some 2 1⁄4 miles (3.6 km) north into Morecambe Bay, and is exposed at low tide.
Fleetwood's economy still revolves around the traditional areas of fishing, tourism, port activity and light industry, but since the early 1970s the town has continued to struggle economically. A government report in 2006 stated that three of the town's five wards fall into the 5% to 10% most deprived wards in England. The town's largest and most prominent single employer is Lofthouse's of Fleetwood Ltd., manufacturers of Fisherman's Friend—a menthol lozenge popular worldwide and especially in Japan.
The Mount and the entire length of Fleetwood Promenade has an uninterrupted view across Morecambe Bay, a view described by author Bill Bryson in Chapter 23 of his book Notes From a Small Island as easily one of the most beautiful in the world, with unforgettable views across to the green and blue Lakeland hills: Scafell, Coniston Old Man, the Langdale Pikes. Directly across the Esplanade from the Mount lies the Marine Hall and Marine Gardens, Wyre Borough's largest entertainment venue, opened in 1935.
The 13 hectares of Fleetwood Memorial Park was developed out of the earlier Warrenhurst Park, itself an early-C20 park designed by Thomas Lumb of Blackpool. In 1917 the park was renamed Memorial Park in memory of those who died in the First World War. The memorial statue was added a few years later and memorial trees planted by the children who lost relatives. Fleetwood Pier, also known as 'Victoria Pier', was a feature of the town from its construction in 1910 until it was destroyed by fire in September 2008.

Freeport Fleetwood
The Shopping Forecast from Freeport Fleetwood was a tactical burst of television advertising that ran with the sole aim of driving pre-Christmas sales at Lancashire's number one outlet shopping centre. Delivering a total of 10 minutes of airtime, this was a calculated initiative to widen the audience from local to regional in pursuit of incremental sales using a simple, value-themed commercial. The response was almost instant with a four-fold return on investment and a new found faith in the power and appropriateness of TV advertising.
2019-04 BLACKPOOL DAY 2 - FLEETWOOD AND THE MARKET | TRAVEL AND EVENTS
Today, filmed on the DJI Osmo Pocket (affiliate link below), we took the tram to Fleetwood where we always visit the market. This time, after the market, we walked back into town, where Christine had seen various travel shops, then went back into Blackpool to the HoundsHill Shopping Centre for a late lunch. We walked up Central Pier and took a tram to Starr Gate, coming back to South Pier to walk that too. Then we went to The Albert and The Lion for dinner - extremely noisy!! Good test for my hearing aids in crowds! I measure 106dB in the matching app on my phone!

Interactive Puddle at Freeport Fleetwood
Childhood nostalgia has arrived at Freeport Fleetwood in the form of an interactive puddle - the first of its kind to come to the UK. The
two interactive puddles are designed by Australian artist Anna Crane and will be live until the end of August, providing a full month of entertainment.
The bespoke sensory artwork was created using a complex team of mixed design disciplines to create the illusion of water. The puddle will use motion sensors to activate interactive sounds and smells, creating an association with memories from childhood for adult visitors.
